Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022028829A1] The invention relates to an aerosol generation system comprising an aerosol generation device (200) and a consumable (100) for use with the aerosol generation device. In particular, the invention relates to a consumable comprising a heat transfer element (110) that is configured to be deformed when heated above a threshold temperature. In a first, the invention provides a consumable for use with and attachable to an aerosol generation device comprising a heating element (210), the consumable comprising an aerosol generation substrate and a heat transfer element for heating the aerosol generation substrate for generating an aerosol. The heat transfer element can be heated by the heating element of the aerosol generation device when the consumable is attached to the aerosol generation device. The heat transfer element is configured to be deformed when its temperature is at or above a threshold temperature, whereby the area of a contact, which exists between the heating element and the heat transfer element can be reduced, or the contact can be eliminated when the consumable is attached to the aerosol generation device and the temperature of the heat transfer element is below the threshold temperature.
